Mechanical investment strategies

Sorry, two of my posts and a thread about the new tax in the Netherlands got deleted after I invested hours in research and translation.

I asked what rules I did brake but got only a strange answer like that this is not written law yet (?). In this case 95% of all articles in this forum must be deleted without comment…

That is a no go for me, sorry. I’ll think about it but I may look for another place to practice my English…

Don’t quite know which emoji to use, so thought I’d write it out - I would find it a pity if you left, although your writing style sometimes is a bit “harsh” (maybe like the German “streng”), IMO you bring a lot of value to the forum.
For example because of your repeated “captain orders me…” and strict keeping to your rules set over years, I’ve decided to be more strict with my rules, which I was too flexible with in the past, adjusting depending what my emotions were “telling me”.

I was asking the mod that deleted my thread. As you answered I thought you were that mod. Sorry mate.

Actually I like (or at least liked) it here. I learned a lot, even the difference between quite and quiet. And you helped me with the decision to get officially retired by getting AHV; now I don’t have to explain what I do any longer although the AHV this month did not last 3 days.

I don’t understand what happened. Any kind of information would have been nice. How can I stop breaking the rules if I don’t know what rule I did break?

I will wait a few days and then decide if I switch to another forum. I suppose I cannot publish a link here, that would be an understandable rule…

While I think it better if moderating actions come with a private message explaining them, when it doesn’t happen, you can engage the dialogue on your side by messaging the moderators.

The blue “message” icon on this page should allow to message them as a group: https://forum.mustachianpost.com/g/moderators

Sorry for off-topic, I don‘t feel like investing my time in moving this message to the best place at this point.
As some one who also had a message deleted without public or private communication, I disagree with you. I see it as the job of the moderators to publically communicate, not my job to retrocatively ask for such communication.

We are saying similar things. I am just providing a way to get in touch with the moderation for when we haven’t had a communication from their part.

It isn’t about who’s job is what, it’s about getting our desired outcome (communication with the moderator who took action against one or more of our messages) and taking steps to get it if required even if we’d have prefered another way (getting messaged from the moderation), which didn’t happen.

That’s annoying, I’d be equally annoyed. I hope you decide to stay because I both value and like your contribution.

That’s a pity – I really enjoyed your insights and overal narative.

Let us know maybe with a private message to which forum you move. I appreciate your posts about US stocks although I wished you would have more international ones, but yes I know EDGAR has all the data :smile:

I mean. I think it’d be the perfect forum. Although, he would need to post at least a month after doing a trade. That way the whales cannot fuck with him.

Who knows, maybe he gets to be the next DeepFuckinValue.

Sorry guys. Thank you for all the supporting messages, were really nice, but sorry.

I will stay to put some links to my trades, just so you all know my performance is real. But I am not sure they let me do that here. But I won’t put it any longer twice.

My dividend strategy.

My momentum strategy

General things about mechanical strategies.

This will be deleted I suppose, but I even got an approval to speak English there…

Looking forward to your comeback. :raising_hands:

I backed up this thread 2 days ago. Wayback machine and archive.is don’t work properly with Discourse. So I just downloaded the whole page as a PDF.

I think he left this forum becaus he didn’t agree with some alleged censorship…

I am aware, but knowing his oil sheikh status as of recently I thought I’d give a shoutout, even though I am pretty sure he won’t reply :slight_smile:

As mentioned before: Allow me to introduce myself: they call me cubanpete - #60 by gaijin

Dang, I was on at all lately due to insane workload, but it looks like the refugees (cool kids) hang out there, maybe I’ll make an account too.

I still wait for the :roll_eyes: smiley reaction option.
